As the legend shows, the Managed AP icon can be blue, green, or red, depending on the status
of the AP:
Blue—The AP has been discovered and by the switch, but it is in a transitional state. The
AP could be waiting to be authenticated, or it has been validated and authenticated but not
configured.
Green—The AP profile configuration has been applied to the AP, and it is operating in
managed mode.
Red—The switch has lost contact with the AP, the AP is being reset, or the AP has
experienced an authentication failure.
When a radio is operating in Sentry Mode, the antenna on the AP icon is replaced by the letter
“S” as Figure 79 shows.
Figure 79. Sentry Mode - Detailed View
For radios in sentry mode, the AP power display image around the AP is gray.
The Channel Color legend maps the color of the power display image to the channel that the
image color represents. The color corresponds to the channel that the radio is using for
transmission. The available channels depend on the mode and country of operation.
